gd support in apache/php

i am running a redhat 7.0 server and i have apache and php installed. i have also installed the gd libs. but i still can not create images on the fly. i am just wondering if anybody has suggestions on how i can get this fixed.

Sincerely I never tried the GD library with php,
even If I have access to the library from php.
If you could be more specific maybe we could help you better.

I saw some articles about generating images on the fly are here:
http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/

to be more clear about what i am trying to do. What I want to do is create graphs on the fly for a banner trackin program i am doing. i currently have an html charter but it is not very good. it only allows me to do bar graphs and i would like to do other graphs. and i know this is the only way to get it done. here is my apache configure line.

'./configure' '--prefix=/usr' '--with-config-file-path=/etc' '--disable-debug' '--enable-pic' '--enable-shared' '--enable-inline-optimization' '--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs' '--with-exec-dir=/usr/bin' '--with-regex=system' '--with-gettext' '--with-gd=shared' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-png' '--with-zlib' '--with-db2' '--with-db3' '--with-gdbm' '--enable-debugger' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--enable-safe-mode' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm' '--enable-track-vars' '--enable-yp' '--enable-ftp' '--without-mysql' '--without-oracle' '--without-oci8' '--with-openssl' '--with-xml'

every thing is installed with rpms because of my server being a redhat system. i am not sure what else you need to know. so i will keep watch on the post.

You still have to enable the module in your php.ini. Just uncomment the line that has to do with the GD module and restart apacher and you should be set.

i dont see anything in the php.ini file to do with gd support. could you possibly paste yours from your php.ini file.

thanks

In your Dynamic Extensions section you will have to add this line if it doesn't exist:

extension=php_gd.so

Or whatever your GD module for PHP is called. The GD extension should be in your extensions directory under your php directory. I have seen it have a couple of different names between versions of PHP. It always says "GD" in it though.
